Xu Wushuang looked a little struggling. He had killed a lot of people today. If he wanted to vent his anger, the energy had already passed. At this time, he knew that the Sword Formation Sect was not the culprit of the sect's destruction, and he was even more entangled in his heart. Sword Formation Sect was not the culprit. He didn't want to let go of the people in the sect, but now that he knew the culprit, Wandan Pavilion, he didn't want to let him go even more.
As for the secret that brought disaster to the sect, the leader of the Sword Formation Sect said that only he knew about it, which was somewhat credible.
After hesitating for a long time, Xu Wushuang was still undecided to pay attention. However, Nie Ying gently touched him and looked at Zhang Xiaosheng. Then he came back to his senses and said to Zhang Xiaosheng:
"Zhang Zhang's help today is something that Xu will never forget. Xu said beforehand that if he can help Xu avenge the sect's blood feud, he will do whatever he wants. Therefore, I leave it to Zhang to decide today's matter. Whether it is to kill or let go, Xu will be willing to do so." obey!"
Seeing this, the master of the Sword Formation Sect couldn't help but look at Zhang Xiaosheng nervously. It would be a big mistake to think that this man was young and could be bullied. On the contrary, this young man was now the one who controlled their destiny.
"What do you call the sect master?" Zhang Xiaosheng asked lightly.
"My surname is He."
"Master He just said that you came up with this secret yourself, which means it may be a lie? Do you want to use a fake secret to exchange the lives of so many people in the Sword Formation Sect?"
"I don't dare. Although no one has told me clearly about this matter, according to my observation, nine out of ten times it is true."
"In that case, how about you talk about it first?"
"This..." The master of the Sword Formation Sect looked troubled. He relied on this secret to save his life. How could he say it casually?
"Don't worry, if this secret is true, I will naturally make the decision to spare you for today. If the secret is false...then I have to ask Master He to buy something else to buy his life."
"I...how do I know if you will keep your promise?"
"Haha, didn't you ask me to bet? It's a pity that I don't like to be a player. I like to be a banker. It depends on whether Master He dares to take this gamble!"
The master of the Sword Formation Sect looked at the surrounding situation again. The sadness of the tragic death of his fellow sect had been suppressed by worries about the future. All the Nascent Souls were also looking at him eagerly, hoping that their sect master could tell someone something that would be enough to save everyone's lives. secret.
"Oh, okay." The master of the Sword Formation Sect sighed and said:
"Fairy Piaoping was the best in the world at that time. She had "Piaoping Sword Technique" and "Piaoping Sword Intent" passed down. The former is a move and the latter is a technique. They complement each other and can be cultivated to the peak. But for thousands of years, there has been no more. One person can't even match her, let alone recreate the fairy's former style. Is it really because of the lack of talent?"
Xu Wushuang and Nie Ying looked at each other and lowered their heads silently. They did not dare to take advantage of their ancestors' grace, so they practiced the swordsmanship passed down by their ancestors together. However, they were also aware of the decline of the sect, even if he This generation began to try to have men as the mainstay and women as the supplementary ones, hoping to revive the sect's prestige. However, things didn't work out. Before the two of them could grow up, the sect was brutally massacred and ceased to exist.
"But Wandan Pavilion didn't know how to learn that Piaoping Sword Sect has another inheritance. It is said that it also comes from Fairy Piaoping. It has the effect of reborn those who practice swordsmanship, so they want to exchange with Piaoping Sword Sect, but Piaoping The Sword Sect said it did not have this inheritance, so it refused decisively, and then the Wandan Pavilion forced our Sword Formation Sect to stir up trouble, and sent people to help kill the Piaoping Sword Sect."
"Inherited from Fairy Piaoping? What is that?" Zhang Xiaosheng looked at Xu Wushuang.
The two of them shook their heads at the same time and said:
"There are some things that only the sect master can know, but that day after the master taught the technique, he didn't even have time to explain anything, so he was..." After saying that, he glared at the master of the Sword Formation Sect and said, "Then he was chased by these people, and then he was chased by these people. Later, our senior brothers and sisters fled all the way and never had time to return to the sect."
"Keep talking." Zhang Xiaosheng looked at the master of the Sword Formation Sect again.
"Yes." The master of the Sword Formation Sect looked at Xu Wushuang with some confusion, and then said: "At that time, an envoy from the Wandan Pavilion came to patrol and told us how to destroy the Piaoping Sword Sect step by step, and in the end, that The envoy left me alone and gave me a few instructions."
"The envoy said that the swords of the Piaoping Sword Sect leader and his partners must be kept properly and not lost. It will be a great contribution to the Wandan Pavilion in the future."
"I asked casually at that time, saying that all the sects were destroyed. What are the two swords for? It's not a rare thing."
"But the envoy saw that I didn't take it seriously. His face turned cold at first, and then he seemed to be hesitant to speak. He said that the sword of the leader of the Piaoping Sword Sect is a symbol of conquering a sect, and it is of great significance."
"I felt something was wrong at the time, but I couldn't tell what was wrong, so I had to accept it. But by chance, I vaguely heard two envoys saying something like 'Master of the Sword Sect' and 'Heartbeat'" Only then did I guess that it must involve a treasure that even the masters of the Sword Sect were extremely excited about. Therefore, the Wandan Pavilion was bound to get it but it was hard to come forward to snatch it by force. It could only instruct us to do it, but it did not tell us the specifics. for what!"
When Zhang Xiaosheng heard the word Jian Zong, his heart jumped suddenly. Could it be that Wandan Pavilion wanted to win over Jian Zong? The Sword Sect is recognized as the number one in combat power in the world of immortal cultivation today, and its sect master is also recognized as the number one person. He is extremely crazy about practicing swords. He can excel with swords and has talents that surpass others.
And if the so-called inheritance of Fairy Piao Ping really exists, and it is on the swords of the Sword Sect Master and his partner, the truth cannot be told to the Sword Formation Sect Sect Master. You must know that they are also sword practitioners and can even connect the Sword Sect Sect Master. If everyone's heart is moved by something, will the Sword Formation Sect's Sect Master not be moved by it?
But why don't they take action themselves?
Zhang Xiaosheng quickly understood that their goal was too big and they had no grudges with the Piaoping Sword Sect. What if they took action rashly and aroused suspicion from other sects!
Others would think, why would an alchemist in Wandan Pavilion suddenly wipe out his family if he had no contact with the Piaoping Sword Sect? Could it be that some treasure was discovered?
But if it was the Sword Formation Sect that took action, it would be much more reasonable. They are neighbors and they practice swordsmanship in the same way. Naturally, they don’t obey anyone in their hearts. So if there is a big conflict due to the friction between some subordinate sects, it would be very serious. possible.
"So, that inheritance really exists." Zhang Xiaosheng pondered slightly, not noticing the strange looks on Xu Wushuang and Nie Ying's faces, and raised his head after a while and asked:
"Before that...did you find it when you attacked Piaoping Sword Sect?"
The master of the Sword Formation Sect glanced at Xu Wushuang and said:
"The two sects were fighting that day, and the situation was extremely chaotic. The two envoys of the Wandan Pavilion were both at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul. They restrained the leader of the Piaoping Sword Sect and his partner respectively, and I... then took action to cut off the remaining Nascent Souls. Many When one person is killed, the disparity in power becomes even greater, making the situation completely one-sided."
"At that time, the leader of the Piaoping Sword Sect and his partner saw that the situation was not good, and actually burned Yuanying General... and took Xu Wushuang away. The Yuanying Eighth Level tried their best, and the two generals were naturally unable to resist, and I was far away at that time It’s also far away, so I can’t catch up for a while.”
"Can't catch up?" Zhang Xiaosheng looked thoughtful, raised his brows and asked, "Did you slow down on purpose?"
The master of the Sword Formation Sect coughed dryly and said:
"When it comes to Fairy Piaoping's inheritance, I... am also a layman, so how can I not be tempted!"
"So you deliberately let them go. In your opinion, as long as you avoid the two people from Wandan Pavilion, within the sphere of influence of your Sword Formation Sect, you want to find two seriously injured and endangered Nascent Soul eighth-level and Isn’t it easy for two golden elixir stage monks?”
"This... I did have greed. But in other words, if it weren't for greed that day, how could Xu Wushuang and the two of them escape?"
"This is not the reason for you to risk your life!" Zhang Xiaosheng said calmly.
"I can also tell you a secret!" The master of the Sword Formation Sect said again.
"Hopefully this secret will be more valuable than the previous one!"
"Actually... there are still many people from the Piaoping Sword Sect who are not dead!"
"What!?"
Xu Wushuang's eyes suddenly widened, and he grabbed the master of the Sword Formation Sect with both hands, veins bursting in his arms. Nie Ying also clenched her silver teeth, staring at the Sword Formation Sect master.
Naturally, the physical body of the ninth level of Nascent Soul will not be scratched so easily, but the master of the Sword Formation Sect was still a little uncomfortable. He moved his body slightly and said:
"On that day, after your master and the others fled with you, the two special envoys who originally ordered the massacre suddenly changed their orders and captured all the remaining people alive. Then, all those who were seriously injured had their cultivation levels sealed and their injuries treated. Since they were not killed at that time, , so maybe they are all still alive now."
"Where are they?" Xu Wushuang asked eagerly.
The master of the Sword Formation Sect shook his head and said:
"First they were kept in custody for ten days, and then a group of people came and escorted them away. I really don't know where they went."
"They want to... use these people to attract Daoist Xu who escaped and rescue them?" Zhang Xiaosheng was a little puzzled and asked: "But if you want to lure the snake out of the hole, you have to reveal the news? Why do we never know about it?"
"How can such information be leaked so easily? Of course, we need to find their whereabouts first. If we catch them, everything will be safe. If we can't catch them but we can determine the scope of their activities, we can carefully release some traces of the information and let them investigate by themselves. Wouldn’t it be more real to come out?”
"The traces of this news are probably a certain Golden Core disciple of the Piaoping Sword Sect who was supposed to have been killed..." Zhang Xiaosheng said leisurely.
The master of the Sword Formation Sect was embarrassed again.
Zhang Xiaosheng was still surprised by the turn of events. Although the leader of the He clan had hidden selfish motives, he saved the two junior sisters Xu Wushuang and the lives of the remaining disciples because of his selfish motives.
As for saying that the lives of these people could be used to lure Xu Wushuang out, Zhang Xiaosheng didn't quite believe it. Unless Xu Wushuang and the others already had the strength to fight against the previous Sword Formation Sect, how could they know they were losing and still enter the trap?
So Xu Wushuang and the others have the strength to fight against the Sword Formation Sect... Does that mean they have obtained the inheritance from Fairy Piaoping?
Zhang Xiaosheng didn't know how powerful Fairy Piaoping's inheritance was, nor did the people of Piaoping Sword Sect, nor the people of Sword Formation Sect, nor the people of Wandan Pavilion!
So the real reason those people were able to survive turned out to be...reliance!
In order to ensure that no matter how powerful Fairy Piao Ping's inheritance is, she will always have a card in her hand that can make the opponent afraid of her!
At this moment, Zhang Xiaosheng really felt that Wandan Pavilion was a bit scary.
After digesting for a while, Zhang Xiaosheng's mood calmed down slightly. Seeing Xu Wushuang's complex expression, he couldn't help but ask:
"Fellow Daoist Xu, how do you think this matter should be resolved?"
Xu Wushuang first bowed deeply to Zhang Xiaosheng, and then said:
"Xu's ability to survive till now, his ability to avenge his uncles, and his ability to know the truth behind the massacre of our sect is all thanks to Brother Zhang. For such a great kindness, Xu will die to repay it!"
Zhang Xiaosheng helped Xu Wushuang up, but did not refuse. At this time, any modesty or refusal would be an insult and disapproval of Xu Wushuang.
Xu Wushuang looked at the master of the Sword Formation Sect again and said:
"Xu only believes in cause and effect, and grudges are clear. The sect was massacred at Wandan Pavilion because of it. The sword array gate is a knife. Because it needs to be cut off, the knife cannot be easily circumvented. But by coincidence, the master of He He bypassed the lives of Xu and his junior sister. , and therefore allowed most of the disciples to survive. Although Xu was lucky, it was indeed caused by Master He, so I will no longer kill your sect, but you... wait for Xu and his junior sister to practice After reaching the eighth floor, I will replace Master and fight to the death with you!"
Everyone around the Sword Formation Sect took a deep breath, and the master of the Sword Formation Sect himself let out a long sigh and said:
"Master, his partner, and I have fought dozens of times with no outcome. If we can let go of the people from the Sword Formation Sect, then I am willing to fight you!"
"It's better to dissolve hatred than to end it. Since you can talk it out, it's best. Now the question is, where is the sword?"
The life-and-death feud with the Sword Formation Sect turned into a life-and-death battle, but the enemy he faced turned out to be the Wandan Pavilion. He didn't know if this was a blessing or a worry. Zhang Xiaosheng really couldn't comment too much, so he had to change the subject.
Xu Wushuang and Nie Ying picked up the swords at the same time and looked at each other. Xu Wushuang said sadly:
"Master passed down the two swords to us at that time. We didn't expect that these swords were the cause of the sect's destruction! It's just that the two swords have been passed down for thousands of years. If there is any secret, how come no one has ever discovered it?"
The master of the Sword Formation Sect felt sad again when he saw the two swords. He once imagined that he could find the Xu Wushuang brother and sister, and then discover the inheritance between them, and he could also use this to recreate the style of Fairy Piaoping back then, but now... alas... !
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I want to confirm something." Zhang Xiaosheng suddenly said:
"Fairy Piaoping...is one person, not two people, right?"
"Of course it's one person. Our ancestors defeated all the invincible opponents in the world and established the Piaoping Sword Sect with supreme glory."
"Then why have you two practiced at the same time in the past generations? Have you ever thought about this problem?" Zhang Xiaosheng asked again.
"This...has been passed down like this for thousands of years! Master taught me this way, and I have never asked him why he taught him this way." Xu Wushuang was a little confused.
Zhang Xiaosheng now really understood that it was all caused by inertial thinking!
